I am very concerned about the provisions in Section 10 and their negative effect on the Green Belt. This region needs to be preserved for future generations, not turned over to developers. We need to preserve farmland, protect species that will be destroyed by over-development.
The Ford government should show leadership in protecting the environment, and not remove all restrictions that will allow for uncontrolled development. Have a lot more creativity in assessing where best to encourage development that will encourage the spread of business and jobs throughout the province. Don't destroy rich farmland and irreplaceable green space.
The province and the land will be here long after the Ford government is a distant memory. What will your legacy be if you simply do what is expedient? Voters will have long memories. Remember that only 40% of those casting ballots in June 2018 voted for your party. 60% did not.
